world war

A movie that is somewhat similar but not the same as "artificial intelligence", the former is cruelty veiled with tenderness, while the latter is closer to the bloody truth, and the feelings of father-daughter, father-son, brother-sister cannot relieve people's inner depression.

Perhaps, to those we can and cannot see, we are the monstrous alien creatures that slaughter and trample at will. If the sacrifice of any life is meaningful as the film says, what kind of nightmare will the indiscriminately killed creatures bring to mankind?

The film is as heavy as a dream that I often have, dodging left and right but always being chased by unknown horrors. There is no future, no retreat, only darkness and fear.

This movie also tells us:

1. If there is a chance to land on a planet in outer space one day in the future, don’t eat local food (especially local creatures), don’t drink the water of the planet, and don’t breathe the The air of the planet, otherwise, they will die miserably;

2. The thinking of aliens is actually not different from that of human beings. Even building a robot looks similar to itself, typical of inflated vanity;

3. The vanity of human beings is even more inflated. Creating an alien is seriously lacking in creativity. It is nothing more than a combination of human + spider or octopus.

Fourth, it is better to hide better than to escape. It was difficult to finally arrive in Boston, only to find that the residents of the city who had not yet been invaded were dressed as if they were from a lifetime; or if aliens really came to invade and hide in the cellar, maybe it would be a good idea; (Anyway, don't run around. )

    Disaster movies are so annoying and why this ending is so stupid...If you want to lose weight, you can watch this...

    Like a semi-finished product. Although the director's technique is classical enough and mature enough, it has been 5002 years old when it was released, and the times are different.

War of the Worlds quotes

  • Ogilvy: They've been planning this for a million years. We're beat to shit.

    Ray Ferrier: Please... my daughter.

    Ogilvy: Think about it. They defeated the greatest power in the world in a couple days. Walked right over us. And these were only the first. They'll keep coming. This is not a war any more than there's a war between men and maggots... This is an extermination.

  • [last lines]

    Narrator: From the moment the invaders arrived, breathed our air, ate and drank, they were doomed. They were undone, destroyed, after all of man's weapons and devices had failed, by the tiniest creatures that God in his wisdom put upon this earth. By the toll of a billion deaths, man had earned his immunity, his right to survive among this planet's infinite organisms. And that right is ours against all challenges. For neither do men live nor die in vain.
